Go to menu Window > Reset Perspective ... this will reset the way the views are layout, and also and and place correctly the views contributed by counterclockwise (for now - July 2010 -, the Namespace Browser viewer, placed "behind" the code outline view)
*Create and run a simple Clojure project (Hello World)

Open the Java perspective: Window > Open Perspective > Java (a perspective is a predefined layout of views, suitable for a particular type of development)

Create a Clojure source code file in the src/ directory: File > New > File, twist down firstClojureProject in the file creation wizard and select "src" as the ** the parent folder, and name the file helloworld.clj

Type code in it to define a function: (defn hello who (str "Hello " who " !")) (leave the (ns helloword) call at the beginning of the file), save the file

Run it: Select the firstClojureProject>src>helloworld.clj file, then menu Run > Run as > Clojure REPL. this evaluates the code and starts a REPL

Call your function:

> 1:1 helloworld=> (hello "Betty")
